Even Mac users have to admit that Sony can produce a mighty fine PC (if you're in to that sort of thing). Not just PCs either, but video cameras and Playstations. Now you can add something else to that list of cool hardware by Sony: a 9mm (that's really really small for you metric-unedumacated out there) thick, high definition OLED screen. Prepare to be blown away!

Apple releases 8 core Mac Pro |

 Who uses 8 cores? I don't know, but I'm sure I'd find a way! Apple has raised the bar--again. Yeah, I know. The price is high. Just think, a PM 9600 cost as much as 4k back in the day... and now you can get it for a few Benjies. Maybe in a decade you'll score yourself an octo? But who'll want that when you can get a 50 core 128 bit processor machines by then?
